浅析《麦琪的礼物》中的现实主义

浅析《麦琪的礼物》中的现实主义摘要：在西方文学作品中，《麦琪的礼物》作为欧·亨利的代表作品，是一部典型的现实主义讽刺小说。

本文主要从《麦琪的礼物》所表现的主题思想出发，对其现实主义表现及意义进行探讨。

关键词：《麦琪的礼物》现实主义欧·亨利任何一部伟大的文学作品，一个重要的特点是来源于生活并且高于生活。

作者从生活中的点滴出发，折射出人性的光辉以及人世间众生的苦难。

本文以《麦琪的礼物》为例，对作品中的现实主义特色进行分析，有利于对这部作品进行深度解读。

一、《麦琪的礼物》简介在探讨《麦琪的礼物》所表达的现实主义主题之前，本文对《麦琪的礼物》这篇小说的基本故事情节进行简单的梳理。

作者塑造了有着金子般爱心的一对爱人。

由于经济环境的不景气，他们很难在社会上获得一份稳定收入的工作。

可是，他们并没有因为物质的缺乏而阻挡他们爱的表达。

所以，在圣诞节即将到来的前夕，他们决定贡献出自己最为宝贵的东西来为对方购买一份礼物。

故事的男主人公把自己祖传的手表卖掉给自己心爱的女人买了一把十分精致的梳子。

因为自己的爱人有着一头令人羡慕的金色长发。

可是，令人意想不到的是，当男主人公将梳子送到自己爱人的面前时却发现她那引以为傲的金色长发已经不在。

原来故事的女主人公已经将自己的长发卖给了理发店。

然后，用所得的钱给自己心爱的男人买了一副表链。

两人在圣诞节的钟声里相拥而泣。

虽然他们都失去了各自所谓的珍贵的东西，但是他们却拥有人世间最最珍贵的爱情。

这部作品，虽然篇幅较短，但是通过作者欧·亨利细腻的描写，惟妙惟肖地刻画出男女主人公在卖掉自己心爱之物时的那种忐忑以及要满足对方获得礼物的心愿的那种喜悦。

在这种矛盾的冲突中，整个作品的主题得到深化。

一直以来，欧·亨利被称为世界短篇小说之王。

他的作品主要特色是从现实出发，描写普通大众的日常生活。

最为主要的是，作品的神来一笔，总是给人一种出人意料的结局。

《麦琪的礼物》让人有一种笑中带泪的感觉。

评刘若瑞版《麦琪的礼物》

评中文翻译《麦琪的礼物》《The Gift of Magi 》即《麦琪的礼物》是美国著名文学家欧·亨利写的一篇短篇小说，它通过写在圣诞节前一天，一对小夫妻互赠礼物，结果阴差阳错，两人珍贵的礼物都变成了无用的东西，而他们却得到了比任何实物都宝贵的东西——爱，告诉人们尊重他人的爱，学会去爱他人，是人类文明的一个重要表现。

这篇文章在初中时就已经被学习，今天我从英汉互译的角度来评价一下中文版的《麦琪的礼物》。

众所周知，“反译法”是英译汉中常用的翻译技巧之一，所谓反译法就是指原文从正面表达的,译文可以从反面着笔翻译,如把肯定句译成否定句,或者把否定句译成肯定句。

不同民族的思维方法和用来反映思维的方法往往是不同的，例如，英语民族从正面来表达一个思想，而汉语则可以、有时甚至是必须从反面来表达。

例如《麦琪的礼物》中的一句话：in the vestibule below was a letter box into which no letter would go ,and an electric button f rom which no mortal finger could coax a ring.汉语译为楼下的甬道里有一个信箱，但是永远不会有信件投进去，还有一个电铃，鬼才能把它按响。

译者把原文from which no mortal finger could coax a ring 用反译法译译得十分传神，但如果按照原文的否定形式译，恐怕意识就不会那样贴切，译文也会令人感到索然无味。

欧·亨利是美国最著名的短篇小说家之一，虽然The Gift of the Magi ①是其广为流传的优秀作品，曾被收录中学课本，但对于这篇小说的翻译版本，一直存在许多的争论。

对于翻译的标准和原则，我国学者严复最早提出“信、达、雅”的标准——“信”即忠实于原文，“达”即翻译的流畅，“雅”即译文的典雅。

这一翻译标准至今仍对我国翻译界存在影响。

读麦琪的礼物有感作文(精选5篇)读麦琪的礼物有感作文(精选5篇)《麦琪的礼物》讲述的是一个圣诞节里发生在社会下层的小家庭中的故事。

他们都为对方舍弃了自己最宝贵的东西，而换来的礼物却因此变得毫无作用了。

这里给大家分享一些关于麦琪的礼物的读后感，希望能帮到各位。

读麦琪的礼物有感作文（精选篇1）当我第二次读到这个故事时，我产生了一个疑问，文章的主人公是吉姆与黛拉，为什么题目又要取名为“麦琪的礼物”呢?为了让吉姆更加体面，黛拉不惜卖掉了自己最引以为傲的靓丽的长发，换来与吉姆怀表相配的表链;吉姆也想让黛拉更加美丽动人一些，割舍了祖传的怀表，买来一套黛拉梦寐以求的梳子。

他们都愿意失去自己最爱的事物来成全别人，试想在如今物欲横流的社会里，有多少人还有这样一颗金子般的心? 我一直在想，是什么让能他们拥有如此美好的品质。

黛拉的话语告诉了我答案：或许我头上的头发是数得清的，可是任凭谁都数不清我对你的爱。

没错，就是爱!在我们的社会里，爱已经渐渐被冷眼旁观所取代，被不屑一顾所取代，被利益所取代。

几年前，我看见过这样一条新闻：八十高龄老人路上摔倒，众人旁观，无人搀扶，因压迫心脏气管，与世长辞。

在初次听到这则新闻时，我充满了愤怒：这些人怎么这么无情?这与杀人有何区别?简直禽兽不如!后来我才知道，更早的时候一名老人在路上摔倒，晕过去，爱心人士将它扶起来，送往了医院，也一直照顾他，令人意想不到的是，老人醒来后竟然错认那名爱心人士是推倒他的人，但爱心人士不愿赔偿，结果被人打伤。

或许是老人无意的，或许是有意找人报销医药费的，但这无疑让社会的温度降低了。

如果他们能拥有像吉姆和黛拉一样的心灵，相信这些是是非非都不会发生，人与人之间也能更和谐地相处。

这是一些颠倒黑白的警察，也是那个黑暗时代资本主义的走狗!苏比是值得同情的，但是我们是幸福的，我们生活在一个和平的年代，我们拥有充实的生活，我们更应该向往美好珍惜美好，创造一个更美好的世界。

《欧•亨利短篇小说精选》是一部杰作，不同的境界去读它有不同的感受，我想，一本好书更需要我们去细细品味。

ConclusionA Study on the Sublimation of Humanity inThe Gift of the MagiI. Introduction The Gift of the Magi is a short popular and highly regardedstoryby O. Henry which has moved people such a long period of time all over the world. The story will impress much more people in thefollowing years and centuries. The author, O. Henry 1862-1910 , left us 600 short stories which were published in 1917 in 14 volumes.Since O. Henry’s works were published. A great many scholars all over the world have conducted continuous research into those works and found their profound values. Critics have singled out O. Henryasone of the greatest American short story writers-describing him as a“writer’s writer” who also possesses universal appeal.O. Henry was brought up by an aunt in Greensboro, where, at theage of fifteen, he went to work in an uncle’s drugstore. He married in 1887 and his wife had a daughter in 1889. Because of the troubles that came one after the other, he left his wife and child. In 1897, after learning of his wife’s serious illness, Henry returned toAustin regardless of accusation of of robbery. At the same time, his wife passed away. After his release, he headed for New York City,where he worked as a journalist. The collection of colorfulcharacters in his writing was enhanced by O. Henry’s habit ofwandering the streets and parks, talking to people of all conditions.He wrote sixty-five short stories in 1904 alone, and fifty the next year including The Gift of the Magi. The old classic The Gift of the Magi concernsthe unselfishsacrifice of a young man and his wife, both of who sell their themost valuable and the only possession for Christmas gift. Thisinformation is revealed, of course, in the characteristic O.Henry’ssurprising ending. The surprising ending offers people anopportunityto contemplate. However, Della and Jim are not saddened by what they seem to have lost. In their selfless giving, they are likened to the most wise man. O. Henry primarily uses the story of the Magi tocompare the acts of the two characters in The Gift of the Magi. He does this through the use of symbols and by comparing the selfless giving of presents of Della and Jim to that of Magi. We know thattheauthor wants to reflect something through the whole story.The Gift of the Magi is an extraordinary novel. Form the socialpoint of view, it is a story about a very poor but blissful young couple named Jim and Della in the end of 18th century in England. Asa love story, one of the most moving things is that in spite of thedifficulties in their everyday life, their true love to each other and the enthusiasm for life do not change at all. This storyreflectsthe sympathy with the poor and the criticism on the unfair society.At the same time, it advocates the simplicity and true love.So it was worth to praise and sing the pure humanity. As to havea deeper understanding of the contribution that O. Henry has madeand his achievements,the author of this paper would like to discuss hiswriting techniques in The Gift of the Magi. The author holds thathisworks are mainly characterized on the sublimation of humanity. The next three parts of the paper will discuss the characters, theembodiment and the causes of sublimation of humanity, and then makeaconclusion by summing up his main achievements in his respect and theconventional virtue which we need to promote.II. Depiction of Characters in The Gift of the MagiA. Considerate and Meek HeroineAt the beginning of the novel, the author has deliberatelyexaggerated Della’s poor life condition. Those are all themoney―one dollar and eight-seven cents.“And sixty cents of it was in pennies. Pennies saved one and two at a time by bulldozing the grocer and the vegetable man and the butcher. Three times Della counted it.”1 There are one dollar and eight-seven cents. And the next day would be the Christmas. The author emphasizes that Della counts money pitifully and hardly, especially through “several” repeated action to let us feel the difficulty of Della’s life.hearted This description indicates Della’s shy and kind-personality. At the same time, it also allows us to deeply understandthe poor’s life in that money society. Her home-a furnished flat is 8 dollars per week. In the vestibule below is a letter-box into whichno letter would go, and an electric button from which no mortal finger could coax a ring. Della is with 20 dollars income to maintaintheir lives per week. Therefore, we could understand one dollar andeight-seven cents are so difficult to her. Facing such a distress of life, Della has no choice but to cry down on the shabby little couch.Della finishes her cry and stands by the window, and she thinkstomorrow would be Christmas Day. But she just has one dollar andeight-seven cents with which to buy Jim a present.In face of hard situation, Della is so weak and helpless. Itgives us simplicity impression of Della. She wants to buy a rare and valuable thing for her husband as Christmas gift. But there are only one dollar and eight-seven cents to buy a present for Jim. There isapier-glass between the windows of the room. “Suddenly she whirledfrom the window from the window and stood before the glass. Her face had lost its color within twenty seconds”.2 There are twopossessions of the Mr. James Dillingham Young and Mrs. JamesDillingham Young in which they both take a mighty pride. One isJim’s gold watch that has been his father’s and his grandfather’s.The other is Della’s hair. Has the queen of Sheba3 the women whorules the ancient kingdom of Sheba and is referred to in Habeshanhistory, the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and the Qur’an. livedin the flat across the airshaft, Della would have let her hair hang out the window some day to dry just to depreciate HerMajesty’sjewels and gifts4. Della’s beautiful hair falls about her ripplingand shining like a cascade of brown waters. It reaches below herkneeand makes itself almost a garment for her. It seemed that the hair was so beautiful and cherished.Della decides to sell her beautiful hair eventually, and thisdecision is painful and heavy. However, she feels pleased, because she loves her husband, so she would prefer to suffer losses. That is Della’s true love and considerate heart. Della receives twentydollars from the Madame for her hair. After that, she ransacks the stores for Jim’s present. Because of the love, she researches thegift from one shop to another. Finally, she finds the suitable chain.Della is a considerate and meek woman. At this moment, there is only one person in her mind―that is her husband. In order to buy thesimple and chaste chain, she spends twenty-one dollars.B. Thoughtful and Kind HeroThe author seems to describe the role of hero-Jim much lessthan the heroine. For instance, he seems to pay less attention toselling and buying gift for his wife. However, his characteristiccould be given in an indirect way. For example, Jim is never late, which indicates that Jim is always punctual. As is described that“He looked thin and very serious. Poor life was following, he was only twenty-two and to be burdened with a family. He needed a newovercoat and had no gloves.”5, they live a hard life and struggle for living in a better condition, but they possess not enough moneyand could not seek any way to change their current situation.Although in such a difficult life environment, Jim sells his most previous chain. He cannot live through the Christmas if he does not prepare a present for his wife. He draws a package from his overcoat pocket and throws a gift on the table. That is The Combs-the set of combs, side and back, that Della has worshiped long in a Broadway window. They are expensive and beautiful combs. The combs seem to suit Della only. This is not only the true love but also reflects Jim’s personality. Jim is a thoughtful and kind husband. He and his wife both are sincere and honest people.III. The Sublimation of Humanity in The Gift of the MagiA. Self-sacrificeO. Henry creates a special ending of the article. It means thatat the end of the whole passage the mental status or the fate of the character has changed greatly. From the special ending, the humanity is clearly presented. Among O. Henry’s short stories, the eternal theme proves to be the humanity. The great success of the storycould not be separatedfrom the humanity of characters. First of all, oneof the most beautiful human virtues is the co uple’s self-sacrifice.There exist good and evil elements in human nature, for the twoare usually mixed with each other more or less. While the goodelements constitute the predominant portion, man will carry forward his virtues such as kindness, self-sacrifice, selfless dedication,simplicity and so on. Della has the most prized thing―that is her hair. And her husband just owns the most valuable thing―gold watch that has been his father’s and his grandfather’s. These two things are so priceless and meaningful for themselves. Although they face the poor life, they still want to express their love through auniquegift. But they have no enough money, so they have no other choice.Their mind just has one solution, and then they sell their own most valuable thing to buy the gift for each other. In this condition, both of them do not consider themselves. They only want the other person whom they love to feel happy.Della’s hair is so beautiful, and she cries when she cuts itoff. Of course, she loves the hair, because that is her most proud hair. Not only does she love the hair, her husband loves her longandliving hair too. Thus, her heart is filled with sadness. But for a valuable gift for her husband, she finishes her cry and selects gift happily for Jim. Finally, she finds the suitable chain. Sheconsiders this is the fittest thing for Jim. Therefore, she cuts off the hairand adds another one dollar to buy the unique chain withouthesitation. At the same moment, Jim also plans to prepare aparticular gift for his wife. Because of the lack of money, Jimsellshis most valuable gold watch. Eventually, Jim gives Della the set of combs, which are Della’s favorite.B. Selfless DedicationO. Henry’s stories usually win the artistic effect within theplot and pay much more attention to the character’s artistic power.But he adopts the perspective way to appreciate the human beauty.In New York, in America, families like Della and Jim’s couldhardly keep their economy balanced. So it is impossible for them to buy a good gift for the other people. The only one thing, whichcouldcomfort the Della and Jim is their sincere and warm love for each other.Another one of the most beautiful human virtues is the couple’sselfless dedication spirit. In the story of The Gift of the Magi, there are many mental and physical actions to express their selfless dedication. Della is a little worried after cutting off the hair.Because her husband loves her hair too, and she fears that she isnotas beautiful as before. Although she knows that, she could not help thinking anymore instead of buying a valuable gift for her husband. When Della returnshome, an anxiety comes on her. She finds herselflike a truant schoolboy. She tells herself “Does Jim like me?”6 full of worry.She has prepared for supper and waits for her husband. When shedoubles the fob chain in her hand, Della keeps saying a littleprayer, “Please God, make him think I am still pretty”. From those descriptions it can be known that Della loves Jim so deeply that she cares about every detail. Della presents her love under such harsh conditions to express her inner pure emotion.After Jim going back home, he finds that his wife’s appearancehas changed and he is confused by De lla’s hair. He has sold hisgoldwatch to buy the comb for Della’s beautiful hair. But Della’s hair has cut off. We know, Jim can not think Della that she is not as beautiful as before. In his heart, she is the most beautiful woman.He feels a little surprised because he sells his precious gold watch to buy the comb. However, his wife has no long hair, so he isconfused. Both Jim and Della have the same thought in their mind.They just hope the other person whom they love happy.Now, there is no watch to match the platinum fob chain, and also no brown hair to suit the set of combs. It can be said that DellaandJim buy the chain and the comb respectively at the expense of their valuable possessions. These presents are quite precious for both, though the gifts are useless temporarily. It is their selfless dedication that makes the gifts unique, which are symbols of their sincere and warm love.C. SimplicityLove is an eternal theme of the whole world, and plays asignificant role in people’s li fe. At most of time, it functions like a magic power which renders people a sense of security. The story of The Gift of the Magi exerts a great impact on people’s lifeand growth.Between Della and Jim, simplicity is one of the most humanvirtues among their true love and simple life. They lose their own most precious things to buy the Christmas gift for the other. They never imagine that their gifts are useless. There is no doubt that they receive the most valuable gift―simple and true love.“Then she heard his step on the stair away down on the flight.”It describes Della’s mood when she waits for her husband. She can hear Jim’s step, which reflects their deep love and Della’s excitedand worried mood. They can make such a sacrifice also because of their simple love. Their choices are meaningful and a kind ofsublimation. Hegel says“There is a high quality in the love, becauseit reacts a graceful spirit.”9That is a kind of power and spirit.That is an embodiment of human virtues. Although love is exposed in poverty, thislove is still true andprecious without money. Still in the unfair society and world, Della and Jim present a distinctive love story. They are lovely people in the world. In the beginning, O. Henry uses the story of the Magi to compare the acts of the two characters in The Gift of the Magi. He does this by using the symbols and comparing the selfless giving of presents of Della and Jim. He speaks highly of the couple’ssimplicity.In the end, their gifts are useless on the surface. But they are the wisest persons. They use their simple actions to expressindividual thought, languages and behaviors. They use theirsimplicity to prove the real value in that money society. They tell human what the most priceless thing is in the world.IV. The Causes of Humanity SublimationA. Economic CauseThe Gift of the Magi reflects the inevitable result and the real love in that complicated capitalist society. O. Henry displays the theme with simple language. O. Henry is under the influence of Europeand naturalistic realism, and he has a strong feeling to UnitedStates’ social changes.O. Henry in the late nineteenth, it was the U.S. transitionperiod from free capitalism phase to the monopoly capitalism phase period. At the time of the united states in the capital socialist rapid development stage, the capital appeared pauperization.Meanwhile, bankruptcy of medium and small bourgeois and the expansionof unemployment made American society full of contradictions.With the contradictions, people made up of a kind ofrelationship. The relationship between the people became the naked money relations. Most of people’s heart was also corroded becauseofmoney society. With a clear understanding of the society, O. Henry expressed severe satire in his works. In America, especially in the large cities, the loss of human nature was too fast. O. Henry used his own way to express the human nature in such an evil society. The Gift of the Magi was not only the embodiment of humanity sublimation but also showed out a strong human nature.B. Political Cause“With the deep contradictions, the masses of the people weredoubt and despair to American democratic society.”8 Once they tried to wipe out the slave through the war, they thought after wiping out the slave America would change. They considered that America wouldbethe most advanced democratic country. But as a matter of fact,America did not become a country which everyone expected withdemocracy, freedom and fortunate. On the contrary, America was oneof the deepest countries whichexisted in the gap between the rich and the poor. During that periodof time, on the one hand, there was a small part of billionaires who indulged the luxury life. On the other hand, there was a large part of people who lived in a very hard life condition. Most of themlivedon the verge of starvation. In such a social situation, social life experienced a great change. In that century, people faced thecapitalist system which was decayed, deceptive and hideous. It seemedthat the society was full of all kinds of ugly phenomena. It was asadark society and a dim period of time. We could witness different classes and all kinds of people. That included billionaires,policemen, thieves, cheaters and so on.Thus, human virtues were not so common. So many people justthought of themselves. During that long period of time, capitalism was very obvious. With the social phenomena, citizens destroyed and twisted human nature. However, the story in The Gift of the Magi madean embodiment of the humanity sublimation. It told human a truth no matter how hard and dark the society is, the human nature stillexists.C. Individual CauseThe theme of the story is about the human nature. The writerchooses the subject intentionally according to his different experiences and livingconditions. As the author, O. Henry has aspecial experience and he gives an endless thinking and complicated feelings to the society and humans.In general, O. Henry writes to the reflection of the life. Hisshort stories are full of human consciousness. The humanconsciousness is not only his feeling to the life, but also theresult of the influence of American social background and culture. O.Henry lives a tough lifestyle throughout his life. Therefore, hefeels the pain and misfortune of the bottom layer deeply. Herecognizes the social evil through many social phenomena. There isnodoubt that the hard life experiences bring him a lot of pain.O. Henry’s short novels are as the epitome of his whole lifecourse. O. Henry exclaims in The Gift of the Magi that “life ismadeof sobs, sniffles and smiles.”9 And sniffles occupy a majority ofthe life. O. Henry’s worse life leads him to experience all themajor life scenes. There are various scenes which include unusualadventure, city life, high society and more bottom life. A special experience brings him pain, but also teaches him to recognize andadapt to the hard society.O. Henry reflects the unusual social meaning through usualthings. In this way, it can reveal the most profound truth of the life. In The Gift of the Magi, he also uses a simple and usual story to reflect anunusual meaning. He tells a story about Della and Jimto express the human nature. He plans to reflect humanity and make anembodiment of humanity sublimation successfully.V. ConclusionThis paper has discussed the simple but true love in the story of The Gift of the Magi. Love in the novel is a crucial part asaffection between male and female is highlighted. In the aspect of developing the plot, love as a clue, a main line runs through the whole story. Through the paper, we plan to make a study on thesublimation of humanity in The Gift of the Magi. In the story,although Della and Jim live in a very poor and difficult life, they seem to have a usual lifestyle and their story is full of truehumanity. Those are human’s genuine, kind and beautiful spirit. The precious spirit is humanity sublimation in the hard situation. In that society which is corrupted by money and authority, money is everything. In the money society, the author tries to help usunderstand whether exists something else more important than money.The story of The Gift of the Magi gives everyone an obviousanswer concerning what is the most valuable thing in the world. In people’s eyes, the gift can be bought with money, but the true loveis priceless. The true love includes self-sacrifice, selflessdedication and simplicity from one person to another one. In the story, Della andJim are wisest persons and they are the magi eachother because their unique virtue. The Gift of the Magi is arealization about true love and humanity sublimation. O. Henry’swritings are still lively and entertaining as ever. The story of The Gift of the Magi is the signature of his writings. Human can notchoose the life environment, but we can choose our spirit support.The paper lets us know the most priceless gift is our human’sspirit.O. Henry exposes the injustice, unreasonable things, abnormalphenomena and lower people’s miserable destiny through his creation.For one thing, O. Henry is pitiful with the lower people.

小议麦琪的礼物 (1)

小议《麦琪的礼物》（The gift of the magi）——有你便有爱，有爱便是天堂《麦琪的礼物》是美国著名文学家欧亨利写的一篇短篇小说。

小说讲述圣诞节前的一天,一对小夫妻互赠礼物,结果阴差阳错,两人珍贵的礼物都变成了无用的东西,而他们实际上却得到了比任何实物都珍贵的礼物——爱。

Jim和Doller 属于社会中普通平凡的一对，虽然他们并不富有，却从外丢弃他们对彼此的热情与深爱。

Doller 有着一头美丽长发，而Jim 的珍宝则是他的怀表。

尽管经济并不宽裕，他们仍希望在圣诞节时赠送对方一份美好的礼物来表达爱意。

于是，为了给丈夫买一条白金表链作为圣诞节礼物，妻子Doller卖掉了一头秀发，而出于同样的目的，Jim 卖掉了祖传金表给妻子买了一套发梳，尽管彼此的礼物都失去了使用价值，但他们却获得了无价的爱。

欧亨利的作品被形容为“带泪的微笑”，他在讲述悲伤与不幸的同时，同时也歌颂了美善。

《麦琪的礼物》之所以影响如此深远，不仅因为作者独特高超的写作技巧，更在于作品中蕴含的强大震撼力。

原文中有这样一段话：“那三位麦琪，读者都知道，全都是有智慧的人——非常有智慧的人，他们把礼物带来送给出生在马槽里的圣婴耶稣。

在这儿，我已经笨拙地给你们介绍了住公寓套间的两个傻孩子不足为奇的平淡故事，他们极不明智地为了对方而牺牲了他们家最最宝贵的东西。

不过，让我们对现今的聪明人说最后一句话，在一切馈赠礼品的人当中，那两个人是最聪明的。

在一切馈赠又接收礼品的人当中，像他们两个这样的人也是最聪明的。

无论在任何地方，他们都是最聪明的人，他们就是麦琪。

”（The magias you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi. ）作者将这对生活拮据的夫妻比作圣人，饱含着作者对深情与真爱的歌颂与赞美，让高尚而纯洁的人性得到完美体现与升华。

有关麦琪的礼物作文三篇有关麦琪的礼物作文三篇麦琪的礼物作文篇1人们常把锋回路转，出人意料，大反常驻机构理的结尾称为“欧・亨利式的结尾”，相信欧？亨利的小说正是因为其独具风格与魅力的结尾而享誉世界。

读了欧・亨利的名作《麦琪的礼物》，我才深深地感受到了欧・亨利小说的吸引力。

这篇《麦琪的礼物》写一对贫苦夫妻，丈夫有一只金表却没有相称的表链；妻子有一头美丽的长发，却没有相配的发梳，而妻子卖掉长发给丈夫买了金表链。

两人同时为对方考虑各自干出了动力心魄的“壮举”，使得双方的'愿望都落了空。

作品以意料之外而又在情理之中的结局收尾，凸显了夫妻之间感情的诚笃、深挚，读来催人泪下。

这篇文章又便我想到泰格尔的小小说名作《窗》，描写两位卧床的重病人，住在仅有一门一窗的狭小房间里，只有透过窗口才看见外界，生活死寂沉闷。

为了安慰病友，近窗人每天向病友编织窗外斑澜多姿的景观，使病友摆脱寂寞，得到了快慰。

至此故事似可以作结了。

然而病友突生嫉妒，对近窗人竟见死不救，待争到近窗的铺位，见到的却只是光秃秃的一堵墙，作品于文末陡起波澜，出现逆转，使小说有了强烈的艺术魅力。

这种欧・亨利式的结尾是使人物的情感、行为或事情的结果向完全相反方向转折的一种构思方法，是增强文章吸引力的有效手段之一。

它一般包含两大部分：“蓄势在前”，和“逆转在后”。

即先形成一种思维定势，然后突转，突然打破积蓄已久的定势，从而造成一种久蓄而猝发的艺术冲击力。

这种结尾往往会造成心灵的震憾，给人更直接地心灵暗示，爱是相通的，但又是不可理喻的，只要互相谅解，互相支持，互相帮助，人世间将开满绚烂的爱之花！麦琪的礼物作文篇2《麦琪的礼物》这篇小说的情节并不复杂：圣诞节快到了，一对恩爱的小夫妻想互赠礼物。

但是拮据的经济条件使他们捉襟见肘，只能卖掉自己心爱的东西换取对方心爱的东西。

结果妻子卖掉了美丽的长发，给丈夫买了白金表链；而丈夫却卖掉了祖传的金表，给妻子买来了她向往已久的发梳。

[麦琪的礼物]《麦琪的礼物》赏析

[麦琪的礼物]《麦琪的礼物》赏析[麦琪的礼物]《麦琪的礼物》赏析篇一 : 《麦琪的礼物》赏析麦琪，是圣子耶稣诞生时前来送礼的三位智慧的贤人。

他们首创了圣诞节馈赠礼物的风俗。

在西方人看来，圣诞礼物是最可珍贵的，因而也希望自己获得的礼物是最有价值的“麦琪的礼物”。

美国著名作家欧?亨利在《麦琪的礼物》这篇小说中，用他笔调幽默又带有淡淡哀伤的艺术语言讲述了一个“没有曲折、不足为奇的故事”。

以圣诞前夜馈赠礼物如此平常的题材创构的小说，在西方文坛并非罕见，其中也不乏精心之作，而欧?亨利的《麦琪的礼物》独自绝响，成为这类题材的杰作，确实是令人深思的。

首先，从内容上看。

全篇以馈赠圣诞礼物为中心线，写了美国一对贫穷而恩爱的夫妇。

这个家庭的主妇为了节省每个铜子儿，不得不“每次一个、两个向杂货铺、菜贩和肉店老板那儿死乞白赖地硬扣下来”。

尽管如此，到圣诞前夕全家只剩下一块八毛七分钱。

作家不用多费笔墨去写这个家庭的拮据困窘，只是简单地用“一块八毛七分钱”引出全篇。

唯其如是，深爱丈夫的主妇德拉把这钱数了三遍，并因为无法为丈夫购得一件称心的“麦琪的礼物”而伤心地哭泣。

欧?亨利最擅长用貌似平淡的话语作素描，去营构一种气氛，让读者沉湎其中，领味和思考人物的命运。

“一块八毛七分钱”为这个“没有曲折、不足为奇的故事”营构的忧郁凄凉的气氛始终贯穿全文，即使写到夫妇看到礼物时的瞬时惊喜和欢乐时也明显地带有这种气氛袒露的伤痛。

“人生是由啜泣、抽噎和微笑组成的，而抽噎占了其中绝大部分”。

这句话似乎折射出欧?亨利对当时美国现实的深沉思考。

作家写出了一对贫穷夫妇的痛苦，也在对人物思想性格和故事情节的描写中，把读者的趣味引向高尚的境界，给人以启迪，让人从中获得美的陶冶。

这是《麦琪的礼物》这篇小说真正价值之所在。

德拉为了给丈夫心爱的金表配上一副精巧的表链，忍痛卖掉自己一头美丽的头发。

那“美丽的头发披散在身上，像一股褐色的小瀑布，奔泻闪亮”，丈夫吉姆非常喜爱妻子这头美丽的褐发。

《麦琪的礼物》爱情的力量与理解的价值

《麦琪的礼物》爱情的力量与理解的价值麦琪的礼物：爱情的力量与理解的价值爱情是一种伟大的力量，它能够改变一个人的生命轨迹，同时也能够点燃旁人的希望。

小说《麦琪的礼物》讲述了一个感人的故事，揭示了爱情的力量以及理解的珍贵。

通过主人公麦琪的经历，我们深刻地了解到，爱是一种无私奉献的情感，而理解是人与人之间交流的桥梁。

通过这篇文章，我们将探讨爱情的力量和理解的价值。

在小说中，麦琪是一个聋哑少女，她从小就面临着世人的误解和歧视。

无人与她交流，她的世界变得寂静而孤寂。

然而，一位年轻的居民马修重新为她打开了与世界相连的大门。

马修并不同情她的聋哑，相反，他对她的关心和理解却使得麦琪获得了前所未有的幸福感。

爱情的力量使得马修坚持与麦琪交流，他并没有被麦琪的残疾吓倒，而是从内心爱护她。

他学会使用手语，通过触摸和眼神交流来与麦琪沟通。

这无私的关爱和理解让麦琪感到了被爱的温暖，她感受到了属于自己的幸福。

爱情的力量在小说中体现得淋漓尽致。

正是因为马修的爱，麦琪才有了进一步发展的机会。

她开始学习交流，慢慢地融入到社会中去。

爱能够激发人的潜能，它给予了麦琪重新认识自己和世界的机会。

通过马修的爱和鼓励，麦琪具备了自立的能力，她在社区中开设了一家独立的店铺，成为了一个受人尊敬的商人。

这一切都离不开马修所给予的爱和理解，正是这份深深的情感，让麦琪在黑暗中找到了光明。

除了爱情的力量，理解也是这个故事的重要主题。

麦琪的聋哑让她无法用语言进行交流，但是马修通过非语言的方式来理解她，打破了沉默的界限。

理解是一种彼此沟通的方式，它能够让我们看到对方的内心世界，也使我们更加接近他们的感受和需求。

在麦琪的例子中，马修的理解使得她感受到了尊重和关爱，从而获得了更大的勇气去实现自己的梦想。

这也提醒我们，在与他人相处时，理解是建立友谊和共识的关键。

通过《麦琪的礼物》，我们深刻地认识到爱情的力量和理解的价值。

爱情是一种强大的情感，它能够改变人的生命，让我们变得更加勇敢、坚强。

《麦琪的礼物》爱情的真谛与世俗的冲突

《麦琪的礼物》爱情的真谛与世俗的冲突人们常说，爱情是一份最美妙的礼物。

然而，在现实生活中，我们常常会发现，爱情与世俗价值观之间存在着巨大的冲突。

字里行间充满着不解与无奈。

就让我们一同来探讨《麦琪的礼物》这部小说中所揭示的爱情的真谛以及爱情与世俗的冲突。

《麦琪的礼物》是中国作家王小波创作的一部小说，通过对麦琪这个角色的塑造，展现了爱情最本质的一面。

麦琪是一个独立且坚强的女性，她毫不羞怯地向爱情表白，并用自己独特的方式去追求真爱。

她相信爱情应该是纯粹的，不受任何世俗价值观的束缚，她追求的是一份心灵相通、无拘束的爱情。

然而，在她爱上自己心目中的男人之后，却意外地遭受到了世俗思想的冲击。

小说中，麦琪爱上了一个叫赵朗的男人，但赵朗追求的是一个在世俗眼中更合适的女人，而非麦琪。

赵朗的家庭背景、社会地位都让他陷入到世俗的桎梏中无法自拔。

麦琪身上所代表的是爱情的自由与真实，而赵朗所忧虑的却是能否融入社会的过程，他们之间的感情因此遭受到了巨大的考验。

在爱情与世俗的交织中，麦琪展示了一种坚持自我、不妥协的态度。

她的爱情并不被外界的世俗眼光所左右，她愿意为了自己心中的真爱去做出任何的牺牲。

她用自己的一生去等待，去思念，去向大众传递着一种无憾的爱情观念。

而对于赵朗来说，他最终选择了世俗价值观所认同的道路，放弃了麦琪。

这不禁让人想到，当世俗冲击真爱的时候，人们是否应该毅然决然地选择追随内心的真实，还是妥协于外界的期望？在现实生活中，我们经常会遇到类似的情况。

世俗的眼光往往会干扰我们对爱情的判断，推动我们做出迎合大众期望的决定。

为了在社会中获得认同，我们可能会放弃自己真正喜欢的人，选择一个被社会认可的对象。

而我们也常常被告诫要“顺应时代”的步伐，去追求所谓的“成功”，放弃内心真正渴望的事物。

这无疑对爱情带来了沉重的负担，让人们产生了无穷的疑问：爱情究竟该如何面对世俗的冲击？《麦琪的礼物》给出了一个启示。

它提醒我们在爱情中应该保持真实和坚定，不被世俗价值观所动摇。

《麦琪的礼物》物质与情感的对决

《麦琪的礼物》物质与情感的对决麦琪的礼物：物质与情感的对决在当代社会中，我们不可避免地面临着物质与情感的对决。

物质，作为我们生活中的基础需求和社会地位的象征，往往能够为我们带来短暂的满足感。

然而，在追求物质的过程中，我们往往忽视了情感的力量，忽视了那些在我们心灵深处产生的真正的喜悦和满足感。

英国作家小波特的童话《麦琪的礼物》中，通过一个小女孩的经历，向我们展示了物质与情感的对决，引发了人们对于内心真正需求的思考。

故事发生在一个郊外村庄里，住着一个独自生活的女孩麦琪。

这个小女孩有一天在成为了花仙子的那一天观察到了村庄里的人们在追求虚荣和物质的生活。

于是麦琪开始思考自己真正渴望的是什么。

她心里产生了一个问题：“物质的世界真的就是人们追求的终极幸福吗？”为了回答这个问题，麦琪带着疑惑开始了一个冒险的旅程。

在旅程中，麦琪遇到了各种人物和情节。

首先，她遇到了一位富有的商人，商人告诉她只有通过拥有金钱和财富才能获得幸福。

然而，这种物质追求带给麦琪的并不是真正的满足。

她发现，虽然商人拥有的物质财富很多，但他却感到孤独和空虚。

麦琪意识到，物质并不能完全满足人们的内心需求。

接着，麦琪遇到了一位奶奶。

奶奶对麦琪说，真正的幸福在于将爱与关怀分享给他人。

奶奶通过帮助有需要的人，无私地奉献自己的时间和精力，获得了内心的满足感和幸福。

这个经历让麦琪认识到，情感的力量以及与他人的分享和关怀比物质更能带来真正的快乐。

最后，麦琪遇到了一位艺术家。

艺术家告诉她，表达情感和创造美是人类独有的能力，是人们内心深处真正追求的东西。

艺术的力量能够触动人们的内心，将无形的情感转化为具体的形式。

通过欣赏和创造艺术，人们能够感受到超越物质的快乐和满足。

通过这一系列的经历，麦琪逐渐意识到物质并不是人们追求幸福的唯一途径。

物质可以提供短暂的满足感，但真正的幸福源于情感的满足和内心的宁静。

这个故事告诉我们，我们应该从追求物质的角度出发，更多地关注自己的情感需求和内心的平静。

这种无私奉献的爱情使两人之间的关系更加稳固和紧密。

电影通过麦琪的行动向观众传达了爱情的真正含义，即在困难时刻，愿意为对方做出牺牲与付出。

其次，爱情的理解在于彼此的支持和成长。

杰克在电影中扮演了一个艰难的角色，他在得知自己的病情后陷入了困境和绝望。

然而，正是麦琪的坚定和支持使得他能够重新拾起勇气，面对困境。

杰克通过麦琪的爱和支持而成长，他学会了珍惜生命的每一刻，并且重新找回了对未来的希望。

这种相互支持和共同成长的爱情，使得他们的关系更加坚不可摧。

最后，爱情的真实与理解在于相互的尊重和信任。

麦琪对杰克的爱是真挚而无条件的，她从未质疑过他的选择和行为。

即使在杰克突然离开和背叛她的时候，麦琪依然对他怀有深深的爱意。

她理解并接受了他的内心挣扎和痛苦，尽管这可能是她生命中最艰难的时刻。

这种相互的尊重和信任使得他们的爱情更加纯粹和持久。

通过整个电影，《麦琪的礼物》告诉我们，爱情是一种无私奉献、支持和理解的情感。

它不仅仅是浪漫和甜言蜜语，更是一种默默无闻的付出和牺牲。

爱情的真谛在于相互关爱、支持和尊重，以及共同成长和理解。

电影通过麦琪和杰克的故事，揭示了这一真谛，并引导观众深入思考和体验爱情的意义。

作为观众，我们应该从电影中得出教训，并将其应用到自己的生活中。

浅析《麦琪的礼物》

英美文学欣赏论文平时成绩期末成绩总成绩题目：浅析小说《麦琪的礼物》院系：班级：学号：姓名：教师：2012年4月1日浅析小说《麦琪的礼物》摘要：《麦琪的礼物》讲述了一个圣诞节发生在社会下层的小家庭里的荒唐却感人的故事。

男女主为了对方牺牲了他们最宝贵的东西，看似荒诞无意且带着些悲剧睛调的故事让我们从另一个角度感受到欧亨利为我们传达的从苍凉中透出的温暖。

真挚的感情是无价的，是每个人都应该追求的爱的最高境界。

关键词：麦琪的礼物，内容，写作特色这篇小说我在中学时代就读过，主要叙述了一对穷困的年轻夫妻互相赠送礼物的故事。

这对互敬互爱的夫妻，尽管生活贫困，他们之间却存在着纯洁、忠贞的爱情。

为了对方的快乐，他们全都乐意做出重大的牺牲。

1从文章的内容来看，该小说设置铺垫，阅读起来井然有序。

小说一开始，就着力渲染女主人公德拉在圣诞节前夕产生的烦恼，从而突出了构成全篇情节基础的矛盾：想买礼物而生活拮据。

作者在前文有意蓄势，反复强调了“一块八角七分钱”的钱数之少和来之不易，这使德拉购买圣诞礼物的希望很难实现。

为了解答读者的疑问，作品接下去介绍了德拉作为主妇的这个家庭的窘境，这对年轻的夫妇，住的是“与贫民窟相差无几”的公寓，亲戚朋友很少来往，信箱里根本就没有投信进去，我认为作者这样做都是在蓄势，为后文表现德拉与杰姆的真挚的爱情打下坚实的基础。

金表和美发，对这个每星期只有20块钱的家庭来说，是一笔巨大的财富，作者极力表现金表和美发的重要性，用了非常形象的比喻及夸张手法来表现，更加衬托出它们对主人公的重要，毫不夸张的说，金表和美发是他们生命得一部分，双方都是因为欣赏而艰难幸福的生活。

但是到最后，真挚、纯洁的爱情还是让双方都舍弃了自己的最爱，心甘情愿的献出。

这是何等的爱情，惊天地、泣鬼神。

无法用言语形容。

另外，小说揭示社会现实不靠说教，而是用人物感情的起伏的发展变化作为脉络，启发读者去触摸，感受人物带有悲剧性的思想性格，在那个金钱可以买卖爱情，心理和感情出现畸变的社会中，德拉夫妇的真挚深厚的爱体现了作者的理想主义色彩。
